junges dokfest 2: Lovers’ Discourse

No love song, but a discourse about love. These five films investigate the concept of love. We experience love as a feeling of longing, in gestures and symbols, in bytes and pixels, in poems and music. Love seems to be everywhere, on the sports ground, at the party, on the internet and at quite unusual occasions. Yet we still can’t grasp it. Is love just a commercialized feeling, a bodily reaction, or just projection? Even though – or maybe because – it is so mysterious, love is just wonderful. // CN: Violence (Será Inmortal Quien Merezca Serlo) // !!
